The delete button is broken: it changes size when dragging/hovering (which is totally unnecessary), but then when you move to the left before releasing it shrinks again.

The download button is counter-intuitive. Instead of letting you download your tasks, it downloads the source code instead.

Double-clicking on an item does not let you edit it.

Opening the app in two different tabs simultaneously does not work. When moving tasks in one tab, the changes are not reflected in the other tab.

Please refer to GoTorO's comment, https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=13004502. There are few bugs hence the app is in beta, I'll be releasing a set of fixes by tonight, rest will be integrated soon :)

Very cool!

I was assuming the app to be written with a framework like React or Angular, and was pleasantly surprised to see that it's just a html and a JS file with some styles applied - very refreshing.

Same here, nice to see an app that doesn't immediately add 300k of JavaScript before its really needed. This is 200 lines of code that's pretty useful. Great work.

> that it's just a html and a JS file with some styles

And jquery. And jqueryui. And handlebars. Would angularjs been that much heavier?

Wonderful! :) how about using firebase to save the data in cloud, rather than relying on local storage? Or maybe have an option to import/export to some storage.

https://github.com/i-break-codes/scrum-board#more-to-come :) thanks btw..

Like the idea you can then have multiple instances with the same data.

It's really cool.

I wonder how online scrum boards I've seen so far don't seem to visually integrate User Stories. On our physical Scrum board, we have big stickers for user stories, and tasks are written next to them. I've yet to see this implementation on a virtual board.

Thanks, feel free to post your suggestions via github issues - https://github.com/i-break-codes/scrum-board/issues/new

I've raised a github issue about providing backend support for your app, would you be interested in it? I can help.

I'd want one of these boards to have a timer, for a change! None of the services anywhere offer embedded timer/stop watch. You start a task, you should be able to time it.

Very nice look & feel. Sadly double clicking to edit doesn't seem to work in Chrome.

Thanks, and double clicking works, you need to expand your task and click on the Description text/Assigned to and so on. Your card will turn into editable mode. There are couple of bugs around editing if you try to edit a card after creating, fix for the same will be released by tonight.

This is cool. I would like to have an option to select a lighter color theme.

Edit: Corrected the typo.

Will work on the UI soon, thanks :)

I don't understand. What is so cool about this board ?

Nothing cool, just a simple app to track your tasks offline :)

Looks good. But editig and deletion does not work for me.

To edit you have to open the task first. To delete you have to drag the task over the bin and wait for it to expand.

A question: I believe these kind of UIs/apps are not a complex undertaking in any sane desktop UI API. So is JavaScript dev/ecosystem in such state that it is worth showing off such stuff?

I opened the site in firefox on android and it is not working. Unable to do shutting other than adding task. I think we also need a mobile UI :)

Integration with Asana?
